The Average American Voice,

am an American, bat am not one
who believes that the American voice
is musical. In fact, the voice of the
average American is not of pleasant
quality. Considered musically, it is
jerky and spasmodic. The Language
forced upon his articulation is not of
the LIQUID, smooth nature that gives the
Italian his pre-eminence as vocalist.
The number of men, and especially
OF women, in this country who have
discordant voices is such as to warrant
the belief that there must be q radical
change in some direction to bring
Am srican vocalism to the front rank.
II has been discovered in this city,
when large number of voices fol
choral work was desired, there was q
great scarcity of fine voices among the
American population. In gre al
many OF our singers there Is plenty OF
art and polish, but the voice is lacking,
and art will not atone for that.
l believe that much might be done
to remedy this natural defect by an
early training Of the vocal organs ol
children. True, what is called sing.
ing is practiced in our public schools,
but the pupils are left to sing at ran
dom, and tail to learn the difference
| between vocal noise and melody
Nearly every child of native origin
sings in nasal tones, and the result is {
detormity OF the voice that grows with
age, and shows both in singing ant
speaking. The ear is trained, but the
voice is neglected. Nothing is moro
disagreeable than rasping femal'
voice, and two-thirds of our womer
| speak in harsh, nasal tone.

ASSAULTED AN EDITOR.

A Railway magnate Uses Violence After
Failing to obtain Retraolon,
SPRINGFIELD, Mo, Jan. 3-A most
sensational fight occurred in the city this
morning in the Office Of O'Dsy brothers,
in which John O'Day, second vice-presi-
dent of the St. Louis & San Francisco
railway, and his brother Ed O'Day and
Mr.. Strothers, editor of the Evening
Leader participated. The Leader has
been claiming recently that the Morning
Herald was owned by John O'Dsy and
while pretending to support
the Democratic ticket, it has in
reality through the influence
of the Frisco road used its power to de-
fest that ticket. Last Friday the Leader
published en- editorisl attacking Mr..
O'Ddy personally. This brought MIR.
O'Day to this city, and this morning he
and his brother met Strothers on the
street and invited him into Mr.. O'Day's
office to talk over matter of business.
John O'Day drew from his pocket a paper
which Mr.. Strothers says proved to be q
retraction of the Leaders, former state
ments, and asked Mr.. Strothers to sign
1t. He refused and Mr. O'Dav struck
the editor on the head with his walk
ing stick and partly stunned him,
but the latter grasped his assailant and
foored him. Ed O'Day Joined in the
fight end knocked Strothers down and af-
forwards inflicted several ugly wounds
upon the latter's face and body. Stroth-
ers says John O'Day then drew revolver
and would have shot him but
for the timely interference of Walker,
Crenshaw and MIR. McGregor who sepa-
rated the combatants. After the fracas
the O'Day brothers drove rapidly to the
Frisco depot, where the railroad mag
nate took train for st. Louis. War
rants have been issued for the arrest of
the O'Day brothers. Strothers will sur
yiye his injuries.

Fence Cutters Caught IN ths.Act and Shoot
One of the DISCOVERIES.
Special to the Gazette.
MCGREGoR, TEX, Jan. 3.-Mr. Mic
Carnes, a wealthy cattlemsn of this
county, has suffered several times re-
Gently from the depredations of the fes-
tive fence cutter. Mr.. Carnes employed
Young man, Billie Brison, to guard his
pasture fence to prevent the destruction
of his property, and on last Saturday
night the villains commenced the work,
when Brison came up on them and de-
manded them to throw up their hands.
There were two men, one standing guard
while the other did the cutting. AS soon
as Brison spoke the men opened
FIRE with revolvers, striking young
Brison in the deshy part of the thigh. He
thinks he struck one of mis- asssilants, and
the Oglesby blood hounds were soon on
the scene, and ran the track closely, and
stopped at house where blood was
found on the floor and bed clothes. No
one was at home; hence no arrests have
been made. The detectives are still at
work, and it is expected hourly that the
vicious men will be brought to Justice.
1t is reported that public feeling is rum
ming high in that neighborhood, and that
it would not be healthy for the men to be
captured and brought here.

Skating With Sails.
Cleveland Leader.


From the piers at the mouth of the
river, yesterday, the harbor just inside OF
the breakwater presented an odd appear
ance. Even nautical man could almost
have taken oath that small yacht
aad half a dozen canoes had
been shod with runners and were
skipping about over the ice with all sail
set. The entire hsrbor is now covered
with ice at least half foot thick. Near
the shore men have already begun to
cut it up and haul it to the ice
houses. In the middle it has been badly
broken up by the action of the
wind and the waves from the lake, but a
wide stretch extends along the entire
length OF the brakewater, as clear and
smooth as glass. 1t is a paradise for
skaters, but few of them have vet
made the discovery. A few days ago,
bill" Shipman, as genial and
thorough fresh water sailor as ever
stepped foot on yacht, began the con-
struction OF an ice-boat. 1t is small, but
neat and not gaudy, and when it was
tried on Tuesday it carried him
over the ice trife faster than he want
ed to go. Yesterday the wind was
lighter, and the boat behaved more So
berry. Several yachtsmen and canoeists
have hit upon the idea Of sailing upon

DEFENDED HIS WIFE'S HONOR.

Id Nelson on Trial for Murder at Bolton
Special to the Gazette.
Bolton, TEX, Jan. 3.-The district
court has been engaged during the day on
the trial of Ea Nelson, charged with the
murder of John FourmaR on the 18th day
of last February, The trial will in all
probability consume the next two days
The circumstances of the killing were ex-
tremely exciting and trsgical. Nelson
approached POurman on the square OF
this city, which was at the time
crowded with people, and drawing pis-
tol commenced firing on him. Fourman
fed across the square followed by his as
sailant, who fred shot after shot into his
victim until the latter fell to the ground,
when Nelson, approaching the PROSTATE
man, fired a last shot through his head,
killing him instantly.
The cause of the killing as near as can
be gathered, was as follows: Some four
or five years ago the two
men lived nesr each other, Nelson
having family and Fourman
being an unmarried man. Fourman
in q confidential conversation with one of
his boon companions in the neighborhood
asserted that he had been on terms too
intimate with Nelson's Wife Several
years passed. Fourman was married
with his family when difficulty arose be-
tween himself and the man to whom he
had talked about Nelson's wife.
This man then went to Nelson

Mrs. Theall came out and saw blood
on the seat of the carriage, and OF once
sprang into it and drove rapidly back on
the route the horse had come, and soon
came upon the dead body of her husband.
She examined the foot tracks on the road
ami the ambuscade, and picked up sufi
cient evidence to give clew TO the assas-
sins. Her keen work caused the arrest of
the men above mentioned. 1t is said that

Special to the Gazette.
Bolton, TEX, Jan. Sat O'Clock
this evening quite an excitement was
created by man rushing In and inquir-
ing for the sheriff, saying that man had
been murdered near the Leon bridge, two
miles and half from town. Deputy
sheriff John Anderson was sent out to
look after the matter, and in a short
while returned with John Hardis, who
was placed in jail. 1t seems that
Hardis and his nephew, Mel
vim Smith, got into a dispute over
a pair of boots, and Hardis discharged
load of buckshot from a double bar
relied gun at Smith, striking him in the
thigh and producing dangerous wound.
Hardis was arrested about five miles
from the scene of the shooting. Hardis
is an old man fifty years of age, while
Smith is quite young. Hardis had been
drinking quite freely during the day, and
says that too much. Christmas whisky
